The t206 looks slightly different. They might have touched up the uni, changed the shirt folds and Bender's eyes but that doesn't really make sense. It was very common for players to be photographed several years apart and look almost exactly the same - obvious examples are Jimmy Collins and Keeler. There are even some batting poses that never seemed to change - I've seen several Mantle posed LH shots that are almost identical, but not quite.
